When Southside enters a studio, history tends to follow. As the co-founder of 808 MAFIA, his fingerprint is embedded in the DNA of modern trap—an architect of a sound that’s both cinematic and street-rooted, blustering yet deeply intentional. From platinum hits to underground staples, his beats have helped shape the sound of a generation.

With the release of Southside – King of Trap Vol. 1, the prolific producer hands the keys to his sonic kingdom to the next wave of creators. This isn’t just a sample pack—it’s a glimpse inside the engine room of trap’s evolution.

And this pack couldn't make it any clearer. From the opening kicks to the closing risers, the King of Trap delivers raw energy and polished chaos in equal measure. The pack includes 294 samples covering everything from gritty drums and earthquake 808s to anthemic synths and layered melodies built to dominate any session.
